The super chargers are nice, adding about 95 HP. I'd rather have a 4.7L stroker kit. There the reverse affect of the Super Charge adding more low end power and torque which is better for rock crawling. Still if someone gave me one for my Jeep instead of the stroker I wouldn't turn it down.

Yeah I agree but that then leaves you with finding the right tranny and transfercase. This site might help. http://jeep2diesel.org/

I would probably run a GM 4L60/atlas 4 t-case if I were to do it. As most of the 4BT's found in step vans had a GM trans. the 4L60 would bolt right up. And of course custom made driveshafts would be in order.
